Shannon Taylor hasn't added a story.
The sudden loss of Dale Wood, fondly known by many as Woody, has left us all rocked to the core. As we all offered support to one another, and hoped for the best possible outcome, many of us felt helpless as we watched the tragedy unfold. What if I told you there was a way you could help?
My name is Shannon. Some of you may know me but I would assume many wouldn't. I have known Woody for a couple of years which in comparison to a lot of you is quite a short time. I am also Kane Young's partner and he has asked me to create this campaign for Woody. Many in the Bordertown community would know Kane and his mateship with Woody. He saw Woody not only as an all-time great mate, but as a brother.
This campaign has been created in attempt to raise some funds to relieve Woody's mum Kathy, of financial stress at such a terribly difficult time. Funerals are costly, but the 3000+ km trip to get Woody flown home to Bordertown is in the vacinity of $4,500. As a parent, you make provisions when your time comes, so as to not leave your children with the financial burden, but you never really do prepare for the loss of a child.
If you, like I did, felt helpless when Woody went missing but desperately wanted to contribute in some way, then I ask you to please consider donating. It would be fantastic to give Woody the send off he deserves! Any donation, large or small, will be greatly appreciated and received with love. If somehow our goal is exceeded, the additional funds will be put toward Kathy's share of the funeral costs.
I would like to take this opportunity to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who donates!
*** My sincerest apologies for the miscommunication as to the original figure. Please note $4,500 is the correct amount for the goal to Bring Woody Home.... **** Thanks everyone for your donations!
